Aunt Jody, We are so sorry for your loss. We have many great memories of Uncle Charlie. He was a great husband,father, and grandfather. We are so very lucky to have had him in our lives. Many prayers and hugs to you during this time. We love you! Susan and Scott Colaianni

What a great loss we are feeling here in Arizona, our Charlie will no longer be here to give the big smile he had for us when we stopped in to visit him and Jody.
Charlie was such a great brother-in-law. There was nothing he would not do for you, he was ready and willing anytime you asked.
We will see you in Heaven. Love you brother.

Barb, I was so sorry to read about your dads passing. I have so many great memories of the times I spent with you and your family. Your dad was always able to keep us teenagers laughing. I still remember the trip to Redfish Lake, we had such a good time. I hope you and your family can find comfort and peace in the memories you have of him.

I REMEMBER YOUR PARENTS AND MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY. WE WERE NEIGHBORS ON MISSOURI AVE., IN PHOENIX.

My fondest recollection of Henry was in listening to the fond memories and boyhood stories as re-told by Larry. He so loved his father & always spoke so highly of him, I felt honored to know him. My love goes out to Henry's family.
Fondly,
